This is a cry from Gaza
My daughter Alma is hungry, weak, and in pain.
Every night, she asks for food I cannot give
I am terrified that hunger will take her before anything else does
Please, if your heart still feels, help us survive
Your compassion can save her life

But absolutely not because it's the right thing to do.
In September, HuffPost UK revealed Starmer had decided the 2-child benefit cap must go.
One MP says: “It’s a recognition that we need to show some kind of progressive inclination, and presumably to try and cool the leadership talk.”

Starmer Hopes Lifting The 2-Child Benefit Cap Will Cheer Up His Unhappy MPs. But Is It Too Late?
The prime minister is being urged by his allies to use his Labour conference speech to "draw a line" over recent controversies.

We are so far through the looking glass that the man who tried to overthrow an election becomes president, the people who attacked the Capitol are turned into martyrs, & it's the BBC that gets punished - cheered on by the worst news outlets in the UK & the two most dishonest politicians of our age.
It’s not at all clear to me how the BBC can do any kind of serious journalism if its top two bosses can be forced to quit over such an obviously confected scandal. There is no substantive error here. How can the BBC report on Trump, or Farage, or anyone else, in these circumstances?

Over and over, centrists make this same mistake. They think there's some reasonable middle ground and that the right, like them, will appreciate the effort made to find it. But that is a fundamental misunderstanding of right-wing politics. It is a belief system structured around power alone.
